GRAND-AM FOREWORD To Our Competitors, Our goals are to have highly competitive, affordable and entertaining events for our licensed participants and North American spectators. The primary tools that will allow these goals to become reality are our book of regulations and our relationship with our participants. Every organization, to be successful, must have good rules and fair enforcement. We believe that the regulations in this book achieve the first of these objectives and promise that throughout the year our officials will strive to accomplish the second. The confidence that comes from knowing that the rules are fairly and consistently applied will result in the relationship of trust and mutual respect we seek. For us to be successful we must take public acceptance and appreciation for our sport to the next level and beyond. Our rules are designed to promote close competition among varieties of equipment while attempting to minimize costs and improve the excitement and entertainment values. Maintaining a full starting grid of various makes and designs, and ensuring that they remain competitive with each other, will require vigilance in both enforcement and concept of our regulations. We will do our best to ensure that we retain fields that are as equally matched as possible. Therefore, ocassionally we may need to make modifications via written notifications to all competitors. Such changes will only take place to maintain the desired balance. The rulebook will be kept up-to-date at our Web site, www.GRAND-AM.com to include any technical bulletins released during the year. Please study this book and know the regulations. Knowledge is power. Best wishes for a successful and rewarding year. We'll see you at the races!

Tom Bledsoe President

PREFACE The Grand American Road Racing Association (GRAND-AM) Regulations are designed to provide for the orderly conduct of road racing Events. A GRAND-AM sanctioned Event is a competitive sports event, which is intended to be conducted and officiated in accordance with these regulations. Ultimately, the solution for unauthorized or improper officiating lies not in individual challenges seeking to undo what has been done, but rather in pressure brought upon the officials in charge by drivers, owners, fans and even GRAND-AM to improve the caliber of race supervision. Any affected participant should address any complaint he or she might have regarding officiating to the GRAND-AM Managing Director of Competition. It is ultimately the obligation of each participant to ensure that their conduct and equipment comply with all applicable GRAND-AM regulations. No express or implied warranty of safety shall result from publication of, or compliance with, these rules. They are intended as a guide for the conduct of automobile racing and are in no way a guarantee against injury or death to participants, spectators, or others.

Effective Date The GRAND-AM Regulations are effective upon the date of publication by GRAND-AM, regardless of when a Competitor receives actual notice. Date of Publication of the Regulations, any amendment thereto, or any Supplemental Regulations pursuant to Section 1-7, is the earliest of mailing from GRAND-AM Headquarters or release to the daily or trade press. Amendment The GRAND-AM Regulations may only be amended by publication of an amendment in a GRAND-AM Bulletin issued by GRAND-AM Headquarters pursuant to the authority of the President of GRAND-AM or other duly authorized official of GRANDAM. An amendment is effective upon the date of publication by GRAND-AM, regardless of when a Competitor receives actual notice. Applicability The GRAND-AM Regulations are applicable to all Events, including competitions and sanctioned tests. Interpretation and Application If there is a disagreement or dispute regarding the meaning or application of the GRAND-AM Regulations, the interpretation and application by the GRAND-AM Officials at the track shall prevail. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in the Rule Book, GRAND-AM Supervisory Officials may review an interpretation or application of the Regulations where the Supervisory Officials deem such review to be appropriate. Finality of Interpretation and Application The interpretation and application of the GRAND-AM Regulations by the GRAND-AM Officials at the track (or by a GRAND-AM Supervisory Official when conducting a review provided by Section 1-4) shall be final and non-appealable, except as provided in Sections 13 and 14 below. In order to promote automobile racing, to achieve prompt finality in competition results, and in consideration of receiving the numerous benefits available to them, ALL MEMBERS, INCLUDING COMPETITORS AND OFFICIALS, EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT DETERMINATIONS BY GRAND-AM OFFICIALS (AND GRAND-AM SUPERVISORY OFFICIALS WHEN MADE) AS TO THE APPLICABILITY AND INTERPRETATION OF THE GRAND-AM RULES ARE NON-LITIGABLE, AND THEY COVENANT THAT THEY WILL NOT INITIATE OR MAINTAIN LITIGATION OF ANY KIND AGAINST GRAND-AM OR ANYONE ACTING ON BEHALF OF GRAND-AM, TO REVERSE OR MODIFY SUCH DETERMINATIONS OR TO RECOVER DAMAGES OR TO SEEK ANY OTHER KIND OF RELIEF AS A RESULT OF SUCH DETERMINATIONS, UNLESS THE GRAND-AM OFFICIALS OR SUPERVISORY OFFICIALS MADE SUCH DETERMINATIONS FOR NO PURPOSE OTHER THAN A BAD-FAITH INTENT TO HARM OR CAUSE ECONOMIC LOSS TO THE MEMBER, COMPETITOR OR OFFICIAL. IF A MEMBER, COMPETITOR OR OFFICIAL INITIATES OR MAINTAINS LITIGATION IN VIOLATION OF THIS COVENANT, THAT MEMBER, COMPETITOR OR OFFICIAL AGREES TO REIMBURSE GRAND-AM FOR THE COSTS OF SUCH LITIGATION, INCLUDING ATTORNEYS FEES. EACH MEMBER, COMPETITOR OR OFFICIAL FURTHER COVENANTS THAT IN ANY LITIGATION BROUGHT AGAINST GRAND-AM FOR ANY REASON, IF THE LITIGATION IS NOT DISMISSED PURSUANT TO THIS COVENANT, THE MATTER WILL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION AND HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN SUCH ACTION. Principal Rule of Interpretation and Application The GRAND-AM Regulations are intended to ensure that Events are conducted in a manner that is as fair as possible for all Competitors, consistent with prompt finality in competition results. On occasion, circumstances will be presented that are either unforeseen or are otherwise extraordinary, in which strict application of the GRAND-AM Regulations may not achieve this goal. In such rare circumstances, GRAND-AM Officials, as a practical matter, may make a determination regarding the conduct of the race, the eligibility of a Competitor, or similar matters that are not contemplated by or are inconsistent with the GRAND-AM Regulations, in order to achieve this goal. Such determinations are reviewable by GRAND-AM Supervisory Officials as contemplated in Section 1-4 above. All such determinations are subject to the finality rule in Section 1-5 above.

Supplementary Regulations Supplementary Regulations may be made and issued by GRAND-AM Officials or Supervisory Officials for an Event.

SECTION 2 - MEMBERSHIP Eligibility GRAND-AM may, but is not required to, accept as a GRAND-AM Member any individual or business entity interested in road racing, so long as the individual or entity has properly and truthfully completed and filed a membership application, agreed to abide by the GRAND-AM Regulations, paid the fee(s) prescribed for membership, and meets the required qualifications. GRAND-AM will determine eligibility of any person or entity that has properly filed a membership application and meets the required qualifications for the membership. GRAND-AM is dedicated to the highest degree of professionalism, sportsmanship and integrity in road racing. For that reason, GRAND-AM may reject the membership application of an otherwise qualified applicant in the interest of automobile racing or GRAND-AM. Among other things, participation or involvement by a Member or applicant (including, in the case of a business entity, involvement by any stockholder, director, officer, employee, partner or agent thereof) in conduct detrimental to automobile racing or to GRAND-AM, whether in the course of racing activity or not, and whether the applicant was a Member or applicant at the time of such conduct, may result in rejection of a membership application by GRAND-AM. Application Process Application forms for a GRAND-AM membership may be obtained from GRAND-AM Headquarters. Upon completion, they must be submitted to GRAND-AM Headquarters, which is the only GRAND-AM office authorized to issue such memberships. Membership application forms must be fully executed, signed by the applicant, and accompanied by the requisite fee. The receipt of a GRAND-AM membership application form and fee by a GRAND-AM Official does not constitute the issuance of or approval by GRAND-AM of such an application for GRAND-AM membership. Applicants will be advised in writing by GRAND-AM Headquarters whether GRAND-AM Headquarters has approved their application for membership. Membership Status A GRAND-AM Member is not an agent, servant or employee of GRAND-AM by virtue of such membership. With respect to any GRAND-AM related activities in which a Member engages, unless the Member is also an employee of GRAND-AM, the Member shall act as and be deemed to be either an independent contractor or an employee of a person or entity other than GRAND-AM, and not an agent, servant or employee of GRAND-AM. Each such Member, or the Members employer, is obligated to furnish any tools, supplies or materials necessary to perform the Members duties. Each such Member shall be responsible for compensating, and shall be responsible for all actions, of their employees or agents. Each such Member assumes all responsibility, either by himself or his or her employer, for any charges, record keeping, premiums and taxes, if any, payable on any funds the Member may receive as a result of any activities as a GRAND-AM Member, including but not limited to, social security taxes, unemployment insurance taxes, workers compensation insurance, income taxes and withholding taxes. Suspension GRAND-AM may suspend a Member for a definite or indefinite period of time in the interest of automobile racing or GRAND-AM. The affected Member may appeal such a suspension to the GRAND-AM Commissioner.

Final approval of any emancipation documents will be at the promoters discretion. It is the entrants responsibility to abide by any and all specific requirements, on an event by event basis, for the participation of a driver under 18 years of age. Membership Non-Transferable A GRAND-AM membership is non-transferable and non-assignable. It may be used only by the person or entity to which it is issued. Any attempt to transfer, lend, or permit any other person or entity to use it shall result in a fine imposed on the Member by GRAND-AM of not less than five hundred Dollars ($500.00 USD) and suspension or termination of the membership. IF FOR ANY REASON, WHETHER INTENTIONAL OR UNINTENTIONAL, A MEMBERSHIP IS TRANSFERRED, LOANED OR USED BY ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY, THE MEMBER SHALL INDEMNIFY GRAND-AM AND ALL RELATED PARTIES FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH TRANSFER, LOAN OR USE.

4-6 Drug Abuse Policy - GRAND-AMs Substance Abuse Policy rules are designed to keep Events safe for everyone. To those ends, GRAND-AM prohibits the misuse of alcohol, prescription drugs, and any other substance used in a manner that affects the safety of competition, including but not limited to-- illegal substances. GRAND-AM Members are subject to the rules and procedures of GRAND-AMs Substance Abuse Policy, which can be found in its entirety on GRAND-AMs website. GRAND-AM may require a GRAND-AM Member to submit to a test or tests if a GRAND-AM Official has reasonable suspicion that (a) the GRAND-AM Member has violated any part of this Policy as a result of using any prohibited substance, or (b) has diminished ability to perform as a result of using any prohibited substance. Some of the conditions, observations and/or reports that may cause a GRAND-AM Official to have such a reasonable suspicion are, without limitation, as follows: 4-6.1 When a GRAND-AM Member is found or observed in possession of illegal substances or illegal drug paraphernalia at any time.

4-6.2 Observation of signs, symptoms, and/or behaviors generally understood to accompany the use of prohibited substances or alcohol use or intoxication including, without limitation: i. Physical signs of red or droopy eyes, dilated or constricted pupils; ii. Slurred speech, stumbling, or hyperactivity; iii. Needle marks; iv. Repeated unexplained disappearances from an Event; v. Constantly running nose, red appearance in the face, or persistent sniffing; vi. Time distortion, including repeated tardiness and missed appointments; vii. Chronic forgetfulness or broken promises; viii. Accidents during Events; ix. Inability to concentrate or remember, or to maintain attention; x. Mental confusion, paranoia, or presence of abnormal thoughts or ideas; xi. Violent tendencies, loss of temper, or irritability; xii. Extreme personality change or mood swings; or xiii. Deteriorating personal hygiene or appearance. 4-5.3 An arrest or conviction for driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or a drug related conviction. 4-5.4 Receipt of a report from a reliable source that a GRAND-AM Member is under the influence of substances prohibited under this Policy on the day of a GRANDAM Event, or, at any time, is using, possessing or selling illegal drugs or substance. 4-6.5 The results of an examination or test, as provided by the GRAND-AM Rules, which shows evidence of use of a prohibited substance or alcohol abuse or of adulteration or manipulation of the specimen. 4-5.6 The odor or aroma of an alcoholic beverage on or about the breath or body of a GRAND-AM Member consistent with use of such a substance or alcoholic beverage on the day of a GRAND-AM Event. 4-5.7 Violation of GRAND-AM safety precautions or careless acts during a GRAND-AM Event. If a GRAND-AM Official directs a GRAND-AM Member, who refuses to consent to and participate in a test within the time period designated by the GRAND-AM Official, the GRAND-AM Member may be removed from the racing premises by a GRAND-AM Official and may be subject to other emergency action as may be appropriate, including disciplinary action pursuant to GRAND-AM Rules. To View the complete rules and procedures of GRAND-AMs Substance Abuse Policy, please visit GRAND-AMs website. SECTION 5 - SAFETY Assumption of Risk - Automobile racing is an inherently dangerous sport. Each Competitor assumes that risk when he or she participates in an Event. The risk of serious injury or death cannot be eliminated and, in fact, will always be present at a high level. Members are required to advise their spouses and next of kin, if any, of this fact. Although safety generally is everyone's concern, GRAND-AM cannot be and is not responsible for all or even most aspects of the safety effort. That responsibility instead rests with the various participants in the Event(s) as follows 5-1.1 Promoter - The Promoter is directly and finally responsible to ensure that the racing facilities are adequate for the Event; that adequate safety personnel and equipment are provided for each Event, both for the purpose of preventing injury where reasonably possible and responding to injury when it occurs; and that the conditions at the racing facility are maintained in a reasonable manner to reduce the risk of injury, all as more fully set forth in the Sanction Agreement applicable to the Event.

Car Eligibility GRAND-AM Officials will determine whether a car, including any car part or equipment, meets the applicable specifications for an Event as set forth in the Rule Book or contracted series regulations. Such determinations may be made by GRANDAM Officials at any time before, during or after the Event. Competitor Obligations A Competitor must take whatever steps are requested by a GRAND-AM Official to facilitate inspection of the car. Inspection Prior to Race If a GRAND-AM Official determines prior to the race that the car, including any car part or equipment, does not meet the applicable specifications, the car will not be allowed to compete unless, in the discretion of the Official, the deficiency (a) is so insubstantial as not to warrant a determination that the car is ineligible to race; (b) will not provide the Competitor with a competitive advantage over other Competitors; (c) will not adversely affect the orderly conduct of the race. If the Official permits the car to compete under these circumstances, the Official will apprise the Competitor in writing of the deficiency, and if the deficiency has not been corrected by the date and time specified by the Managing Director of Competition, a penalty may be imposed by the Race Director, and the car will be prohibited from competing in any future Event until the deficiency has been corrected. Car Sealing or Impounding GRAND-AM has the right, for inspection and/or competitive analysis purposes, to seal or impound cars, car parts or equipment entered and competing in an Event. GRAND-AM is not responsible for payment, reimbursement, damage or loss to the Competitor as a result of such sealing, impounding and/or analysis. Inspection After Race At an Event where the GRAND-AM Regulations, Supplemental Regulations or GRAND-AM Officials mandate inspection after the Event, any car that has competed in the Event may not be taken from the racing premises without permission from the GRAND-AM Managing Director of Competition or his designate. GRAND-AM Officials may assess an inspection fee of up to $5,000.00 for any engine that requires additional cooling time in excess of the maximum cooling down time of two hours from the official completion of the race. If a GRAND-AM Official determines after the race that a car, including any car part or equipment, does not meet applicable specifications, but the deficiency is so insubstantial as to not provide the Competitor with a significant competitive advantage over other Competitors, the Official in the exercise of his or her sole discretion, may determine that the car, car part or equipment was eligible for the Event, but will apprise the Competitor in writing of the deficiency and direct the Competitor to correct the deficiency for future Events. The car will be prohibited from competing in any future Event if the deficiency has not been corrected by the date and time specified by the Official. Equipment or Parts Failing to Meet Specifications GRAND-AM has the right to confiscate any car, part and/or equipment, without obligation for payment or reimbursement, which fails to meet applicable GRAND-AM specifications during an Event. If GRAND-AM determines that any car, part, equipment and/or fuel used by a Competitor does not meet GRAND-AM specifications, GRAND-AM may declare the car ineligible for the Event, disallow the Competitors qualifying times, withdraw the Competitors opportunity to qualify for the Event, and/or make such other determination as may be appropriate in the interest of competition. Competitive Analysis From time to time GRAND-AM may determine, in the interest of competition that it is necessary or appropriate to undertake an analysis of the performance capabilities of a car, car part or equipment or tires. The Competitor or Supplier shall take whatever steps are requested by the GRAND-AM Officials for this purpose. GRAND-AM also has the right to seal or impound cars, car parts or equipment or tires for this purpose. GRAND-AM is not responsible for payment, reimbursement, damage or loss to the Competitor or Supplier as a result of such analysis, sealing or impounding.

It includes, but is not limited to, determinations regarding the eligibility of cars for competition, qualifying procedures, the line-up of the cars, the start of the race, the control of cars throughout the race by flags, lights, or other direct communication between GRAND-AM Officials and Competitors, the election to stop or delay a race, control of pit activity, flagging, the positioning of cars at any time, the assessment of lap and time penalties, and the completion of the race. It does not include the assessment of penalties (disqualification, suspension or fine) except lap and/or time penalties imposed during a race or immediately after a race as provided in Section 8-9 below. The rules in this section provide the framework for GRAND-AM Officials to implement race procedures. In addition to interpreting and applying these rules, GRAND-AM Officials are authorized to make such other determinations or take such other action as they determine to be necessary to promote the best interests of automobile racing, including but not limited to fairness and prompt finality of competition results. Finality of Race Procedure Decisions All decisions by GRAND-AM Officials at the track involving race procedures are final and non-appealable, subject-only to review by GRAND-AM Supervisory Official(s) if one or more such Officials determine that extraordinary circumstances exist that require such review. In making such a determination, the interest of finality in competition results will be a principal consideration. GRAND-AM Supervisory Officials will not review any race procedure decision unless it has been brought to their attention by an affected Member within twenty minutes after the posting by GRAND-AM of the results of the race or qualifying Event at which the race procedure decision was first made. If a GRAND-AM Supervisory Official(s) determines (a) that the race procedure decision should be reviewed, and (b) that the decision was in error, the Supervisory Official(s) may take whatever action deemed appropriate to initiate a remedy to further the interests of fairness and finality in competition results. Such action includes, but is not limited to, revising the official race results, imposing penalties (disqualification's, suspensions or fines), or awarding or subtracting points. The Supervisory Official(s) may alternatively elect not to take remedial action. All such decisions are final and non-appealable, except the imposition of a penalty, as provided in Section 12. Driver, Entrant Responsibilities 8-3.1 The entrant or designate shall be the sole spokesperson for the driver, car owner, and team members in any and all competition matters pertaining to the Event (other than proceedings pursuant to Section 13 and 14 of the Rule Book). At all Events, the entrant or designate assumes responsibility for the actions of his or her driver and team members, and may be subject to disciplinary action as a result. Unpaid fines for the entrant/designate, driver, crewmembers, and/or the car owner may be collected by GRAND-AM by deducting same from the purse or point fund earnings of the driver or car owner. 8-3.2 All drivers must be on time to compete in an Event for which they are scheduled to compete. Any driver or car not ready to compete within five minutes of the time called, may be sent to the rear of the line in time trials or races, or left out of the remainder of the days qualifying Events or racing activities, at the discretion of GRAND-AM Officials. Race Start 8-4.1 Rolex Sports Car Series/Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge - Cars will be gridded by the following procedure. The pit lane will be open to competitors approximately 60 minutes prior to the scheduled race start time for pre-race and fan pit walk activities.

8-8

the scoring line on the track for the first time. At a pre-determined time (announced at the drivers meeting) prior to the scheduled race start the pit exit will be open for exploratory laps. For 5 minutes, unless otherwise specified in the driver/crew chief briefings, competitors may proceed around the track, to their grid positions, or return to their pit lane spot. The competitor may take additional exploratory laps via the pit exit. The pit exit will only be open 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, or the specified time, pit exit will close and all cars should be in their grid spots. Any cars remaining in pit lane must start the race from pit out, in the order of arrival, after the last car on the track clears pit out at the start of the race. Cars on course at the time of pit exit closure may proceed to their starting grid spot or return to their pit lane spots and start from pit lane. Once all cars have gridded or returned to the pits, all engines must be shut off. Engines must remain off until the command to start your engines. The use of jumper batteries or other supplemental starting device is not permitted on the starting grid unless specifically authorized by a Grand-Am series manager. 8-4.2 Alternate Starting Procedure - Cars may be gridded in a normal 2 by 2 directly on the grid or by the Rolex Series procedure. The number of pace laps and gridding specifics will be announced at the drivers meeting for each event. 8-4.3 Special Gridding Procedure - Any car arriving late to the starting grid after the start of the pace lap(s) must start the race from pit lane, same as above. If a car is allowed to enter the race after the race has started, the competitor must receive approval from Pit Road Personnel. 8-4.4 If a car does not leave the starting grid, drops out during the pace laps, or drops out of the race before the completion of the first official lap, and there after fails to return to the race, its finishing position will be determined by its starting position in relation to other cars that do not complete the first official lap. 8-4.5 The number of pace laps will be set at the discretion of the GRAND-AM Officials. During the pace laps, if a car does not maintain its designated position in the starting field, the driver must reposition the car at the tail end of the field and the original space must be respected by the other competitors. Scoring and official distance/time begins when the leader crosses the start line after the conclusion of the announced pace lap(s) regardless of the display of the starting flag. 8-4.6 Race start - At the start of the race, when the green flag is displayed, competitors must maintain the two by two grid formation, and may not begin initiating a pass until they cross the starting line. 8-4.7 Restarts During a full course yellow/pace car situation and on the restart, the race leader and the balance of the field must maintain the speed of the safety/pace car in single file formation at all times or as described in section 94.4. Specific procedures for each track will be announced at the pre race drivers meeting. Race Halt 8-5.1 The GRAND-AM Officials will determine whether the racetrack is suitable for competition. 8-5.2 A race may be stopped at the discretion of the GRAND-AM Officials at any time they determine, in the exercise of their independent judgment, that the track is not suitable for competition. Race Halt/Restart Before One Lap Completion When a race is stopped before the completion of one lap, there shall be a complete restart in the original starting positions. Race Halt/Restart After One Lap Completion When a race is stopped after the completion of at least one lap, cars will line up in the order in which they were running (sequence on track) at the completion of the last full lap before being stopped. Official Completion Unless otherwise stated in the Supplementary Regulations, all races will be run until the leader has completed the advertised time and or distance. However, if unforeseen circumstances prevent the completion of the advertised distance and/or it is impractical to continue the race within a reasonable time after it has been stopped, the race will be considered officially completed if the halfway mark has been

reached by the leader. GRAND-AM will use its discretion to readjust and/or account for driver point eligibility under this circumstance in order to maintain consistent driver team pairings and point totals. Lap or Time Penalties The Race Director or his designee may impose a time or lap penalty during a race by calling a car into and holding the car in the pits or holding a car already in the pits for a specified period of time or number of laps or by adding time to a cars total elapsed time at the conclusion of the race.

SECTION 9 - RACE PROCEDURE and FLAG RULES General GRAND-AM Officials will use flags, as set forth in this section, for the purpose of providing drivers with information. GRAND-AM Officials may use light signals in addition to or in lieu of flags. If a driver is informed of a decision or event by GRAND-AM Officials in a manner other than by use of flags or light signals, then use of a flag or light signal in that situation is not necessary. The procedure for use of flags and/or lights by GRAND-AM Officials may vary for individual series or races. It is strictly forbidden for

9-1

9-2

any competitor to enter race control or timing and scoring at any time while the circuit is in operation. It is strictly forbidden for any competitor to enter the T.V. production trucks or compound during a competition. Mandatory Pit Stop Time 9-2.1 In races where a mandatory pit stop is required prior to a specific time, this requirement will be fulfilled on pit stops occurring after the car has taken the green flag on the track, or if the car starts from the pit lane after it has crossed the scoring line on track for the first time. 9-2.2 Time for mandatory pit stops will be measured at the line that indicates the start of the pit lane speed limit at the entrance of the pits. Flag Signals The following standard flag signals will be used by GRAND-AM Officials to advise participants of various specific instructions and conditions. 9-3.1 Green Flag Start of race, track is clear, cancellation of a previous flag condition. 9-3.2 Red Flag The race is stopped. It will be displayed only at the start/finish flag position.

All drivers must reduce speed and be prepared to stop at any time. No passing is allowed. All drivers must proceed in single file order back to the pit lane (not your pit spot) and wait further instructions from GRANDAM Officials in the pits. Competitor may not perform any type of service on their racecar, including those already in pit lane prior to the display of the red flag, until the race is restarted. The red flag is also used in the pit lane to control exiting from the pit lane area. 9-3.3 Yellow Flag If the yellow flag is displayed in a motionless manner, it means danger, no passing, be prepared to slow down, course workers may be adjacent to the course. If the yellow flag is waved, it means extreme danger, no passing, be prepared to slow down, course workers are on the course. In either case, Competitors must be prepared to stop or take avoiding action. 9-3.4 Double Yellows all stations means full course yellow, danger, be prepared to slow down, no passing, course workers may be on the course, and the safety car will be on the course.

When used at start/finish to signify the last lap, the white flag will be displayed to the leader first and then to the remainder of the Competitors. 9-3.6 Yellow Flag with Red Stripes Slippery surface or debris on the racing surface ahead. 9-3.7 Blue Flag (or Blue Flag with Orange Diagonal) If the blue flag is displayed to a Competitor in a motionless manner, it means another Competitor is following or catching the flagged Competitor and may be trying to pass. If the blue flag is waved, the Competitor to whom it is displayed must give way to the Competitor trying to pass. The blue flag is ordinarily used for a Competitor who is unaware of an overtaking Competitor or is clearly obstructing another Competitor. 9-3.8 Black Flag If the black flag is displayed to a Competitor in a furled manner, it means the Competitor has committed an act of unsportsmanlike conduct. The Competitor must discontinue the unsportsmanlike conduct or be penalized. If the black flag is waved at a Competitor, the Competitor must stop in his or her pit on the next pass by the pit area for consultation with a GRAND-AM Official. It means that the Competitor has committed an infraction of the Rule Book or an act of unsportsmanlike conduct. The Race Director may halt the timing and scoring of a Competitor who fails to obey a waving black flag after three consecutive laps.

All Competitors may take a cool off lap at reduced speed or immediately return to the pit lane. 9-3.11 Black-Flag All When the black flag is displayed to all Competitors, from the start/finish line and all corner stations it means there is an interruption of practice or qualifying. All Competitors on the course must return to the pits immediately, and may expect the practice or qualifying session to resume when the temporary situation giving rise to the black flag is corrected. Passing/overtaking is permitted. 9-3.12 All cars running in an official practice, qualifying or race session must be equipped with a Delphi Safety light system. All 2011 registered cars will be provided a light, antenna, complete mounting bracket and wiring instructions for the in car light system with their vehicle registration. The team must supply additional wiring per the installation instructions. The yellow warning light must be prominently located on the cars dash in clear line of sight for the driver. The activating receiver will be provided by GRAND-AM in tech inspection and will remain the property of GRAND-AM at all times. Teams will be required to surrender the receiver when asked by GRAND-AM. The fine for a lost or damaged receiver is $2,000. Safety/Pace Car 9-4.1 The Race Director may dispatch the safety car at any time during an event to neutralize the racing and correct a hazardous situation on course. The safety car will be dispatched following the activation of the incar Delphi caution lights and the display of double yellow flags at all corner stations. The pit entrance is closed at once at this time. 9-4.2 All cars must continue to respect the flag signals around the course and exercise extra caution in the area of the full course yellow incident. Otherwise all cars must close up to the rear of the line of cars behind the safety car as quickly as possible 9-4.3 Where possible, the safety car will be dispatched in front of the leader. It is the responsibility of the lead car to reduce speed to a level that will allow the safety car to safely enter the track in front of the lead car as well as allow the balance of the competitors to close up in single file in the shortest time possible. On the initial out lap or as soon as the race director deems it safe to do so, the safety car will wave by any cars in front of the leader in order to achieve this. 9-4.4 In events where the cars are equipped with the Delphi caution light system, the activation of the in-car caution light signifies a full course yellow and all competition is suspended. In events where the system is not in use, the display of double yellow flags at each flag station signifies the suspension of competition, and no overtaking is permitted following the plane determined by the first visible yellow flag location. The in- car Delphi caution system and/or the display of yellow track caution lights and/or double yellow flags will signify a full course caution condition and the intervention of the safety car. Upon the display of any of these caution systems, several conditions and activities take place simultaneously. All competition is suspended, passing is not permitted anywhere on the circuit and safety and medical crews may be dispatched directly to the scene of the incident. All competitors must close up the gap and join the back of the line of cars behind the safety car as quickly and safely as possible and follow in single file. The pit entrance will be closed immediately upon the display of any of the caution systems. At the event pre-race drivers briefing, a point prior to pit entry will be

identified determining whether a car has achieved pit lane prior to the display of the yellow safety system or not. When the race leader is not the first car behind the safety car on the out-lap, drivers of all cars between the safety car and race leader must pull out to the right and pass the safety car as directed and proceed around the track in single file in order to rejoin at the rear of the line. In two class races, all cars in the second class, between the safety car and the second class leader, must pull out to the right and pass all cars up to the safety car, including the safety car and then proceed around the track at speed to regain the rear of the line as quickly as possible unless otherwise directed. Any cars that fail to do so by the first time the safety car passes pit entrance must remain in line where they are behind the safety car, except if directed by the race control and the procedure will continue as outlined in the regulations. In two class events, at the first time by pit entrance for the field, in line behind the safety car, the pit lane opens automatically for the top class (Daytona Prototype, GS) only. The second class of cars (GT, ST) must remain on course behind the safety car. On the second pass past pit entrance, by the safety car and field, the pit lane is automatically open for only the second class cars. Following their pit stops, all cars must proceed at speed to regain the end of the line of cars behind the safety car as quickly and safely as possible in order to be prepared to re-start as soon as possible. At the end of the third yellow lap all cars, regardless of class, that have been waved by the pace car in the procedure to regain the race leader (described in 9-4.8 below) may pit. At the start of the third yellow lap the safety car will wave by all cars necessary in order to pick up the overall leader. This will be the last wave by to pick up the leader regardless of how many yellow laps are run from this point on. At the start of the third yellow lap, all GT(ST) cars still in line should pull over to the left and allow any DP(GS) cars to pass on the right to form a continuous line of DP(GS) cars followed by a continuous line of GT(ST) cars in single file. The first GT(ST) car in line starting this lap will be the first GT(ST) car crossing start/finish on the next lap. At the conclusion of the third yellow lap, all passing under yellow ends and the field will remain in the order it is in as of the end of this lap until such time that there is a re-start. In single class events the pit lane will open for the single class as above, the first time by behind the safety car. Competitors should be prepared to go back to green flag racing at the completion of the next lap behind the safety car (second yellow lap). Any car unable to maintain the pace of the safety car during a full course yellow situation due to a mechanical problem may pit at any time to address the mechanical problem only. Any additional work that is performed on the car, other than the specific mechanical issue, will result in an out of sequence penalty. Any car stopping in his designated pit box out of the above sequence and not in compliance with 9-4.9, under a full course yellow condition, regardless of whether work is performed or not, will be assessed a stop and go plus 20 second penalty following the return to green flag racing. Competitors on pit lane must not pass/overtake the safety car on course and may only reenter the course under the specific signals of the Pit Exit Marshal. Competitors leaving the pit road must fall into single file at the rear of the field after the main field has passed the pit exit. Should the lead car fail to properly reduce speed to facilitate the proper insertion of the safety car or if the lead car does not maintain the pace of the safety car, the lead car may be assessed a penalty. When it is clear that the full course caution is no longer needed, the lights on the pace car will go out. Teams will be notified that racing will resume when the safety car is recalled at the conclusion of that lap.

9-4.14 When the green flag is displayed at the starter stand. The in-car Delphi caution lights will be extinguished. All cars between a pre-designated point on the race track and the starter stand (announced at the pre-race drivers meeting), must remain in position and in line until they have crossed the start/finish line. They may then engage in open competition. Cars that have not yet reached the designated point may resume racing once their in-car Delphi caution light is extinguished and the double yellow flags are with drawn. 9-4.15 Short Full Course Yellow In the event of a full course yellow situation, either within 20 minutes of the scheduled time of the end of a race, or within five laps of a previous full course yellow, race control may call a short full course yellow situation procedure as follows: The full course situation will only be for two laps. There will be no class wavebys. On the out lap the pace car will only wave-by those cars necessary to pick up the overall race leader. First time by pit entrance, behind the pace car, the pit lane will be open for ALL cars. In the event the race leader pits at this time the pace car will wave by any cars necessary to pick up the new race leader. The course will return to green on the completion of the second pace lap. Race control will broadcast this call during the out lap in the above mentioned time frames. At the start of the second yellow lap, all GT(ST) cars still in line should pull over to the left and allow any DP(GS) cars to pass on the right to form a continuous line of DP(GS) cars followed by a continuous line of GT(ST) cars in single file. The first GT(ST) car in line starting this lap will be the first GT(ST) car crossing start/finish on the next lap. Competitors should be aware that a normal full course yellow circumstance may still be a possibility in the above mentioned time frames. Rules When Away From the Pits Only a driver may refuel or service an automobile within the first line of protection on the circuit and only with the approval of the appropriate Course Marshal and the Race Director. Crew members or other outside assistance is not permitted within the first line of protection on the circuit at any time. The Race Director must be notified in advance of a driver change taking place on the course. Course Marshals may push or tow a disabled automobile to a safe location without penalty to the Competitor. A driver may not push his car except in pit lane. Pit Lane Regulations 9-6.1 Ordinarily, signaling at the pit wall is not permitted. The crossing of pit lane is not allowed except with specific permission and under the direction of a GRAND-AM pit official. At anytime a car is on track, at least one crew member must be stationed at the assigned pit box with radio communication to the car and race control. 9-6.2 At no time may individuals sit, stand or straddle the pit wall. During any on track session, all team members and equipment must remain behind the pit wall until the car has come to a complete stop in its designated pit, except that a polemounted signal may be extended over the wall to guide a car to its pit stall once it enters pit lane. During a race, a maximum of four people total (crew members and/or industry representatives) are permitted over the pit wall at any one time to perform service on the car. During a pit stop an individual will be determined to be over the wall when a minimum of one foot is on the ground in the hot pit. Individuals assisting in the service of the car from behind the wall must keep both feet on the ground, (or whatever they are standing on), at all times. No direct service may be performed on a car from behind pit wall. During practice, qualifying, or sanctioned testing, a maximum of four individuals may be over the wall servicing the car; however industry representatives will not be counted in this total. Rolex GT cars with single lug hubs will have different sporting regulations for wheel/tire changing. All tools and equipment must be stored or used within the designated pit box behind and in front of the pit wall. Each team is responsible for the safe dispatch of their car out of their pit box into pit lane. Cars already in pit lane have the right of way over cars leaving their pit box.

The only other individuals permitted over the pit wall are a crewmember or driver assisting a driver entering the car. The driver exiting the car or the individual assisting the entering driver must immediately move behind the pit wall and may not perform any other function during the pit stop. The designated team fireperson manning a fire extinguisher must be over the wall at all times when fueling takes place. Whenever a team member is working under a car in pit lane the car must be supported by Jack Stands/Safety Supports acceptable to GRAND-AM Officials. Fueling is not permitted while the car is on Jack Stands. Immediately prior to and during a pit stop, equipment or tools may be rested upon the pit wall prior to being passed over the wall, so long as they are in the hands of crew members. Prior to leaving the pit, the racecar must be free of all hoses, tools, etc. At no time may a car be driven over or hit tools, airlines, parts, wheels, etc. Any equipment or tools that interfere with another cars stop, or come loose from the pit box area, will be considered an unsafe situation and a penalty will be assessed. The team is responsible for the safe signaling of their car back into pit lane traffic. At the conclusion of a pit stop the crew must promptly return all equipment, clean all spills and return themselves behind the pit wall. Pit Lane Traffic No car may be driven under its own power in reverse or against traffic in pit lane. A driver who overshoots his pit must either continue on and complete another lap or be pushed in reverse by his crew. The driver, crew, and/or GRAND-AM Officials may push a car in pit lane; also a car in pit lane may be push-started under supervision of a Pit Marshal. Any car waved into the transition lane from its pit box must yield, not attempt to pass, and fall in line behind any car(s) already in the high speed lane. A car only may enter the high speed lane without impeding, in anyway, a car that is already in the high speed lane. The car in the high speed lane always has the right of way. PIT EXIT Under yellow flag conditions, the pit exit line will determine the restart order. The car in the first pit box only may accelerate directly toward the pit exit line, up to 45 MPH, without merging into the high speed lane. For safety reasons, the car exiting the pits from the high speed lane ALWAYS has the right of way into the pit lane exit. If he was not first to the pit exit line, the correct order will be established before the green flag waves. Under green flag conditions, the pit exit line only determines the end of the 45 MPH speed limit. Drivers are expected to use judgment and avoid contact as they blend in to the pit lane exit. Removal from the Pits Cars may be removed from the pits during a race only with permission from a GRAND-AM Official. The Official may permit the removal of a car from pit lane in order to complete work on the car that is hazardous or inconvenient to perform in the pits. The Race Director may assign a Pit Marshal to observe the work being done outside the pits. Pit Equipment Uniforms All crewmembers must wear clean uniforms, at all times during practice, qualifying and races. Tank tops, short pants and other inappropriate attire will not be permitted in the hot pit area. Uniforms with conflicting sponsorship (Series) logos are not permitted.

GT REGULATIONS

General Class Explanation and Purpose The GT class for 2009 will be comprised of two distinct preparation methods, all designed to have cars at a similar competition level for GT class racing. Prep 1 Unibody GT - This category is reserved for production cars with little or no modifications. GRAND-AM will define each car separately and specify modifications individually. Prep 2 Semi-Tube GT - This category is for cars with modified production or tube-frame chassis. They may be front-wheel drive cars converted to rear-wheel drive or they may be cars that require physical modifications to be competitive in GT. Specified tube-frame construction is allowed. Alternative engines from the original manufacturer may be approved. SECTION 1 - APPROVED MODELS 1-1 Approved Models - GRAND-AM has developed these specifications for competition automobiles that will participate in the category titled "GT". Cars must have been in production for road use or meet homologation criteria, and have been/or be for sale to the public in a regular dealer offering.
